Our indoor classrooms are bright and spacious, and the children have a wonderful outdoor play area and access to the school’s extensive grounds. Alongside the curriculum, they also have access to specialist teachers in Music, P.E., Spanish, Swimming and Forest School.

Our small class sizes and excellent pupil teacher ratios means we can focus on teaching small groups, with clearly differentiated work, to ensure your child is taught at the correct pace for their ability.

Curriculum

A richly diverse curriculum.

Learning is fun at Oakfields and our teachers, together with our specialist staff, engage with pupils to encourage self-confidence, curiosity, independence and a sense of responsibility, laying the best possible foundations for positive learning in the future.

Our children follow a specifically-tailored and richly diverse curriculum, flavoured with the many positive influences and ideals of Preparatory teaching, which allows children to grow naturally, retain their individuality and develop their unique personalities.

The EYFS is made up of seven areas of learning. The three prime areas are:
  • Communication and Language
  • Personal, Social and Emotional Development
  • Physical Development
The four specific areas of learning are:
  • Literacy
  • Expressive Art and Design
  • Mathematics
  • Understanding The World
Pupils are confident to be themselves, effectively supported by teachers who praise and celebrate their achievements.
